It's All in My Head: When Overthinking Becomes Self-Sabotage
Welcome back, DAMN FAM, to It’s About DAMN Time!
This week, I'm diving deep into a topic that hits home for a lot of us-overthinking. If you’re anything like me, you've probably spent nights replaying conversations, analyzing your every move, or holding yourself back from making big decisions because of that internal critic.
Well, let’s talk about how overthinking is more than just a mental loop; it’s straight-up self-sabotage.
In this episode, I get real about my struggles with overthinking and how it’s impacted my growth, my creativity, and my confidence. You’ll hear my story of battling the urge to second-guess myself, the weight of overanalyzing what I post on social media, and the stress that comes with questioning if I'm “enough” for the dreams I'm chasing.
Here’s what I cover in today’s episode:
What Overthinking Looks Like for Me: I share what it’s like to be the “king of overthinking,” from creating content to showing my true self.
Overthinking and Social Media: How fear of judgment kept me from being authentic online, and why I realized showing “Pure Jarratt” matters more than perfect posts.
The Impact of Overthinking on Self-Worth: How I began to recognize that my harshest critic was the one in the mirror.
How Overthinking Becomes Self-Sabotage: I break down how we can unintentionally block our own progress by holding onto the “what ifs” and “maybes.”
Why You Shouldn’t Police Yourself: We talk about why life’s too short to constantly question every move, especially when the biggest regrets often come from things we didn’t do, not the ones we did.
This Week’s DAMN Challenge: I’m challenging you (and myself) to find just one thing you've been overthinking and take action on it, without second-guessing!
If you’ve ever felt trapped in your own mind or found yourself doubting every decision, this episode is for you.
Let's stop letting overthinking keep us from the lives we deserve. Let's reclaim our confidence and move past the endless self-questioning.
Keywords: Overthinking, self-sabotage, confidence, mental health, personal development, social media, self-worth, authenticity, regrets, personal growth, self-acceptance, mental loop, inner critic, authenticity on social media, overcoming self-doubt.
Ready to join the challenge? Hit me up on social media @itsaboutdamntimepod on IG and let me know how you’re stepping out of the overthinking cycle. Let’s work on this together and stop letting our minds be the reason we hold back from what we truly want.
Listen, share, and let’s grow together!
